    Yeah, it was fishy how fast they got rid of the body. My theory is that maybe Bin Laden died a few years before the raid, then when the US could confirm that they just went to the last place he had stayed at and killed a random dude so they could say they had offed him. He was an old man, i hear he had kidney problems, he was constantly in hiding which makes treatment options limited, so it's not unlikely that he died of natural causes. I mean, maybe the official story is true, i really have no idea. But i could see it playing out this way as well.

    I can't imagine he's still alive, that would be such an easy way to flip the USA off. Just make a video that shows you were alive after the raid, holding up a few newspapers with articles about your death, instant PR kick to the balls for America. I can't see him pass up that opportunity.

      There's pictures of the body, classified. They're classified because the SEALs committed a war crime - they went up to his dead body, put the barrel of the gun at the top of his head, and fired, which spit his skull partially in half. They refer to it as "canoeing" their victims. Desecrating corpses is a warcrime and has been committed frequently by the navy SEALs. That's also why, in the photo of Obama and Hillary and all the other people looking at the photos, they all look shocked. It's a gruesome one.
